Liberty Slips (on the Affordable Care Act)

 

 

A Summer’s breeze.
The Season’s tease.
Welcomed Pleasure.
A politician’s treasure.
A distracted mind.
A distasteful find.
Treachery and deceit.
Another is complete.
Tyranny one.
Liberty none.
Political muscle.
An amendment’s tussle.
Authority cries foul.
The people frown and scowl.
Truth, justice, and law;
It’s Tyranny’s claw.
Foul regulation.
Discrimination.
The unseen knife.
Struggle and strife.
Liberty bleeds.
Tyranny pleads.
Authority’s play tears.
Children’s dead teddy bears.
